🍼 BETTER BABIES 🍼 CUSTOM NEWBORNS OVERRIDES 👶

• Say hi 👋 to your new updated newborns! 👶👽
• New improved textures, custom skin tones, hair, eye colors and more! 😎  
     ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ❗️PLEASE READ INFO BELOW BEFORE DOWNLOAD❗️   
      ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ💾 DOWNLOAD \ info:
• Here is my huuuge project for our beloved newborns a.k.a. object babies 👶😂

• 🏷️ Please, consider reading all information below. It will help you quick choose your newborn override (since we can have only one option) and warn you about some issues you might have! Shall we? 😌

• I create a new texture from scratch. We lvl up from 512x512px to 2048x2048px texture size, better quality, better details, no eye specular reflection, no base game clothes! Clock THAT tea 🍼

• The difference between EA base game newborns and this override is incredible! Now you will finally be able to ENJOY looking at them, rather than rushing to make them grow up faster. TRUST ME!  😂

        ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ🗂️ So, how do you choose right package file? 🧐 ⤵️
• ❗️First of all, you [must] need to download no default newborn outfits file. This file delete base game clothes from newborn (diapers excluded lol).
        ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ📝 Now you can see 3 different folders:

     • 1️⃣ CUSTOM SKIN + MAXIS MATCH OVERLAYS ✅
     • 2️⃣ CUSTOM CLOTHES ✅
     • 3️⃣ PSD ⚒️

     • Choose 1️⃣ folder, and you will see 2 options: CUSTOM SKIN and MAXIS MATCH OVERLAYS.
. • 📌 if you interested in custom skin color newborn, keep reading this section. 
     • 📌 If you interested in maxis match overlays, skip this part and scroll down. ⬇️

❗️Because this is an override, you can have only one custom skin color in your game at a time❗️
     • Q: Who might benefit from this option?
     • A: For those who have been playing for one family for a long time and want to choose exactly how their newborn will look.
     • 📈 Pros: the texture quality and color will be as detailed and bright as possible, and it will not look dull. No seams, pixels, or anything else you could see on ea default skin.
     • 📉 Cons: the only and most significant minus is that now every baby that will be born in the family of your sims or in any other family in the world will look the same. Because this is a default replacement. This is not an overlay, but a separate custom color. If this does not bother you, and you want to change the files in your game from time to time for a certain family - this is your choice!
 ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ➡️ Lets start with what skin color you prefer for your newborn 👼
     • I create 5 different shades + alien version (alien will be a default for all alien babies if you choose custom skin version of the file, thats how crib babies works 😂)
      • 🗂️ Example: If you know you will be playing as a light skinned family, you can select the folder under LIGHT COLOR in custom colors folder. Same logic for the rest 5.
     • Then you will see 2 options: no hair & custom hair 👶!
     • ⚒️ The hair color is different for all 5 shades of the skin to match them good, but there is also red and blond version that is included to PSD i give you, so you can customize this 2 new colors OR The most fun: create your own! The texture is 100% recolorable, how cool is that? Im so proof of myself ;-;  
        ㅤㅤㅤㅤ       ㅤ📝 Now we are smoothly moving to maxis match overlays!  
     • Q: Who might benefit from this option?
     • A: For those who have been playing for one family for a long time and want to choose exactly how their newborn will look.
     • 📈 Pros: the baby will have skin and eye color from both parents. Each baby will be unique (maybe I went overboard with unique, but overall yes 🤣). Improved version of the text that will give babies a fresh look.
     • 📉 Cons: due to the lack of color in the overlays, babies may look pale. Seams and shadows from the cribs may appear (unfortunately, I don't know how to fix this 🥲).

     • 🗂️ Example: all you need to do, its decide about the version of the skin. They pretty same, but still a little bit different! There is face option #1 and #2 up close (they are black&white here because its an overlay, as i said, in game they will got mixed color of their parents!).   
        ㅤ        ㅤ        ㅤ  ➡️ Lets start with face you prefer for your newborn 👼
     • In MAXIS MATCH OVERLAYS folder there is 2 versions of the skin overlays: №1 is more pale & №2 is more shiny!

     • 👩‍❤️‍👨 Some overlay variations of newborns from different skin color families:      
     • Then you will see 2 options: no hair & custom hair 👶
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ ✅ 🥰 Thats it! You pick your newborn new skin! 🥰 ✅
      • Now its time to dress up your baby! I create some custom clothes for them: couple of socks, bodysuit and a little bow for a girl 🎀🥰    
❗️IMPORTANT❗️ If you have any default replacement clothes for newborns, you should delete it before using mine❗️
      • Choose 2️⃣ CUSTOM CLOTHES folder, and you will see 4 options:   
      • Socks only 🧦 Depending on who will born, a boy have blue socks, and a girl have pink socks.
      • Bodysuit only 🩱Depending on who will born, a boy have blue bodysuit and a girl have pink bodysuit.

            • Bodysuit + socks 🩱🧦 Depending on who will born, a boy have blue bodysuit and socks & a girl have pink bodysuit and socks.

            • Bodysuit + socks + bow🩱🧦 🎀 Depending on who will born, the girl will get a little pink bow for the hair.
❗️Note: if you want to use this outfit, you must download skin (custom or overlay) WITH hair option! Because it will look weird if the bow is attached to a bald head 😂👀
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤThats it! 👏🏻 Now you can enjoy your updated little angels 👼 
Looks like a lot of information, but trust me its not. I just showed you all options that i create! 🩵
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ‼️‼️ IMPORTANT NOTES THAT I KNOW ABOUT ‼️‼️
💌 I playtest my overrides with different default crib replacements, for some reason they work 50\50. I really have no idea why, but Bassinet Override by @awingedllama works perfect (and looks amazing!) so i highly recommend using their crib replacement with my skins override. Match made in heaven 😂🩷 

            • Why i recommend this? To avoid base game cribs. If you are fine with them, you are fine with them! 🧸
            • Sadly, any of my overrides DOES NOT work with Invisible Cribs by Severinka [x] & Sixam CC [x] 😔
            • The reason is because they are both comes with their own texture.

ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤBUT! I found a solution (i think☠️)!
            • ⚒️ You can change the texture in Sims 4 Studio by yourself:
            • Open package file in Sims 4 Studio, click on Texture > Import > Import any of my texture you consider having in your game > Save. Custom colors & overlays will work the same as i said above!
            • Also, to delete eye specular & normal map from the old clothes and old default skin, you should import to SLOT 1 & SLOT 2 two different textures (they are included at the PSD folder).
            • Now you can use no crib mode & any custom crib override!
            • 💾 3️⃣ You can download PSD files for your personal customization at the same download link. 
            • 🎨 Change everything you need, add new colors for your bodysuit, create a custom hair & eye color. Go for it! 🩷
            • 📲 I made this PSD files super easy to work with, everything is named so you don't get confused, even if you are a new to Photoshop and Sims 4 Studio!

Hi! I'm having an issue where I have both the overlay/default baby file i want and the no default clothes file and the latter doesn't seem to work as the baby still has a onesie over the overlay. Is Perhaps the no default clothes file still outdated?

I have a mixed marriage, and the babies are born with the mom's skin color(light) and when aged up it has their dads skin color (dark) I do not know what I did wrong

shame🎬 · May 18, 2026

just curious, is this override also not compatible with pandasama's childbirth mod or is it just v2? I like both equally, so it's not a big deal but I'm also fine with some of the animations not having the custom skin

E
Ela Gunduz · June 8, 2026

The override won't be visible in any Pandasama animations or when the baby is in the incubator, but other than that they are compatible!

Hi, my sims babies are always born with the darkest skin even when their parents are like the whitest sims ever. I have tried re-installing the mods and that hasn't worked.

s
sleepymel · June 12, 2026

if you read the description of the mod, you can only have one at a time, so if you have the darkest option, you will only see that one in-game.

Hi my babies clothes aren't showing up and i removed every mod and cc I have in my game besides the baby override so nothing should be conflicting. The baby override itself is showing up but the clothes aren't do you know if there's a way to fix this?

Princess Peach · March 16, 2025

Ok so I was right initially. I picked one but I wanted to double check. I then decided to use your combo “no ea defaults, bodysuit, socks, bow and overlay 1 with custom hair” the baby still has no clothes and just a white diaper. I will try on a new save and see what happens. I have a bottle default, will that make any difference?

s
sims3melancholic · March 21, 2025

I don’t know, it might be. I just my cc with clean game, everything works. Every cc than contain interaction with newborns might be the problem, thats how they works by ea :)

sims3melancholic · March 11, 2025

Thank you! What do you mean? Did you download custom skin or overlays?

H
Hailey Hart · March 10, 2025

Hello! For some reason the custom skin is not applying to my newborns. I had my sim have a science baby on her own, and the baby came home as a regular EA baby. I tried installing both the custom skin and the overlay at different times to see if one would work, but neither did.

Hi!! Firstly, I'd like to say thank you so much for making this, it makes babies look so much more realistic, it is so perfect! I noticed a problem in my game where all girl babies were given blue socks and body suits. Do you know what could be causing this?

s
sims3melancholic · March 2, 2025

THANK YOU!! OMG and thank you for letting me know. Please, tell me which file did you download? The issue might be me haha. There is a lot of files, i guess i miss something up! Its easy to change!
